I've been trying to gather some more data on this, and here's what I have so far... I added a config for eth0 in /etc/systemd/network so that the test (which replaces eth netplan config with wifi config temporarily) doesn't leave us without the ability to reconnect.
Testing with dawson-uc18-m7-20190122-10 and stock uc18 after a snap refresh with current pc-kernel, it seems to sometimes work, sometimes crash and I can never reconnect, and sometimes it boots back up and I can ssh in again (and see 0m uptime) Using the current stable image, I get the same behavior though... it's pretty random, so it's hard to say when this started happening: pc-kernel 4.15.0-151.157 805 18/stable canonical kernel Reverting the kernel to the one that was on the image for the dawson-uc18 image: pc-kernel 4.15.0-44.47 182 18/stable canonical kernel ...This one is very old, I know, but after about 50 attempts, I haven't been able to reproduce it with this kernel. Using the current stable kernel again, and reverting core18 to rev 1081 (which was on the image originally), I was somehow (maybe dumb luck?) about to still reproduce a problem, but it was in a state where I could still ssh to it. I could not run snap, ps, or almost anything else, but I could at least find this oops in dmesg: https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/jsctQmJZGc/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1938269 Title: pc-kernel snap 4.15.0-152.159 (UC18) regression in network behaviour Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Several amd64 devices have shown an marked increase in failures to complete automated testing with this kernel snap that is currently on 18/beta channel.

The failure rate does not appear to be 100%, there have been some runs that have completed.
